triskaidekaphobia- Meaning

triskaidekaphobia- Meaning 
Some Christian traditions have it that at the Last Supper, Judas, the disciple who betrayed Jesus, was the 13th to sit at the table  However, the Bible itself says nothing about the order at which the Apostles sat. Also, the number 13 is not uniformly bad in the Judeo-Christian tradition. For example, the attributes of God (also called the Thirteen Attributes of Mercy) are enumerated in the Torah   Some modern Christian churches also use 13 attributes of God in sermons
Triskaidekaphobia may have also affected the Vikings—it is believed that Loki in the Norse pantheon was the 13th god—more specifically, Loki was believed to have engineered the murder of Balder, and was the 13th guest to arrive at the funeral  This is perhaps related to the superstition that if 13 people gather, one of them will die in the following year. Another Norse tradition involves the myth ofNorna-Gest: when the uninvited norns showed up at his birthday celebration—thus increasing the number of guests from ten to thirteen—the norns cursed the infant by magically binding his lifespan to that of a mystic candle they presented to him.

Triskaidekaphobia Meaning  is fear of the number 13; it is a superstition and related to a specific fear of Friday the 13th
